Apollo Powerpress 7481672 Carbon Steel Gas Press Tee 1 in

Product Description

The APOLLO POWERPRESS 7481672 is a 1-inch carbon steel press tee designed for flame-free, three-way branch connections in fuel gas distribution systems. Manufactured from gas-grade carbon steel, this fitting uses a press-style end connection on all three ports, eliminating the need for open flame during installation. It is suited for use in natural gas and propane piping networks where listed press fittings are permitted under applicable codes. Licensed plumbers and gas piping contractors are the typical installers for this type of fitting in both new construction and retrofit applications.

This tee is used in black carbon steel piping systems for residential and commercial fuel gas distribution. The press-style connection method speeds up installation compared to threaded or welded alternatives and is commonly found in indoor gas piping runs where flame-free methods are required or preferred. All three ports are sized at 1 inch, making this a straight tee configuration with no reducing. It is approved for natural gas and propane service under appropriate installation conditions and applicable local codes.
